Time to trade in the chopper for something that can really soar.

Looks like you had a cracking day.

Indeed, they are all really tame - except for one bloody big vulture which they would not let me handle

Looks superb day Arron, the quality of the pics are excellent also. Love the Harris hawk also..you should try and get to Loch Garten in Speyside to the RSPB resverve where the Osprey is ..watching them catch trout is stunning!

Ders, we had an Osprey stop over on The Royal Military Canal in Hythe last year for a week - it was stunning to see, every day virtually the whole town lined the sides of the canal to watch him fish.
